We stayed here for the Donnington historic festival. Hotels in a really good location and nice surroundings. Sadly we missed our dinner reservation due to an issue with the car. The staff recommended somewhere, but we were hungry so just eat brought us some food. Room was lovely, very comfy and a decent shower. Breakfast was lovely and overall a great place.
